ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 28, 2024
JOB SEARCH – Hideaway Springs, CO
1 result.
Single dad rancher seeking live in nanny for 9-year-old boy. Must have experience, playful and not looking for a real-life love story. (Temp job – 6 weeks only.)
Hitting refresh ten times doesn’t help.
There cannot be only one job in Hideaway Springs. Not that I won’t take literally anything at this point, but the likelihood of Levi Reeves hiring me is negative zero.
And if he does, I’d be sleeping with the horses, not his house! Or he’d call the police and “finally arrest” the town Rogue for all her misdemeanors.
But that doesn’t stop me from knocking on his door. Besides, his grumpy scowls are easy to tune out when my eyes keep drifting to the rugged edges of his face and sculpted physique.
I’m hired with a clear understanding that one: he’s desperate and two: he’s got his eye on me. And eventually, his hands too. Because come nightfall, we drop more than our animosity.
Our clothes.
Before the hot summer days turn to crisp autumn nights, he’s claimed me as his. And as hard as I’d fallen, my six weeks are up.
He may have every intention of making me stay, but my past is a reality I can never escape. And I love them both too much to bring trouble to their home.

REVIEW:Who doesn’t like a protective cowboy?
The next installment in the Hideaway Springs series; The Rogue is a spicy, single father, cowboy suspense romance that readers are sure to enjoy. While the book can be read as a standalone, for the best enjoyment of the series, I always recommend reading a series in order to get the most out of it.
Tessa is a freaking hoot! She comes off as a spitfire, but inside she has a vulnerable side she lets few people see. Having landed in a new destination (again) from her constant running, she finds herself in need of a job. And what is the only job she manages to find? Being a nanny for the grumpy cowboy who hates her. *Sigh*
Before anything Levi knew two things; one, he would do anything for his son, and two, Tessa was in trouble. The type of trouble he didn’t know, but it was trouble that he didn’t want around his kid. That unfortunately was out of his hands seeing as Jackson was half in love with her already. Slowly, Tessa breaks down his walls and Levi finds himself not only over protective of his son, but also of his nanny.
As the plot progresses, Tessa’s troubles finally catch up to her, leaving Levi to do what he does best, protect. Throughout the book, there are pieces that just brought me the biggest smile. Jackson was one of them, even more so when he is with Levi and Tessa together, their little triad family is so sweet.
Tessa and Levi work well together because Tessa needs to be treated with care, even if she puts on a stone cold front. And Levi needs to care for someone, their dynamic really makes the plot of the story more relatable. When Ms. Roxy then throws in little Jackson, his sweetness, smiles and bond with Tessa makes for some of the best reading. Very happy with the read, and way to go to the author for her latest share!
